Summary: Facebook’s founder (Zuckerberg) says he would have worked directly for Microsoft if he hadn’t created Facebook

Mark Zuckerberg caught the attention of the press by admitting that if he wasn’t the CEO of Facebook, he’d be at Microsoft. Facebook has been making many moves that make Microsoft stronger, e.g. Silverlight, Bing, and OOXML promotion. Joining Microsoft’s dead products we now have the Facebook app, but we must not overlook reports on Gates agenda advancement at Facebook.

My coverage of the Gates Foundation has mostly moved to identi.ca/Diaspora (quick links with explanations), but one thing that was hard to overlook or omit from full coverage is this Gates-Zuckerberg collaboration. It is worth noting that Zuckerberg too joins this club of fake “philanthropists” [1, 2, 3] and his relation to Gates extends what we knew about his proximity to Ozzie, who had replaced Gates at Microsoft before he — like Gates — left the company. █

“There won’t be anything we won’t say to people to try and convince them that our way is the way to go.”

–Bill Gates (Microsoft’s CEO at the time)
